Managing finances was already known during the time of the Prophet. In fact, prophets in ancient times also prepared emergency fund planning in simple form. As a Muslim, of course it is a good thing to imitate the way the Prophet Muhammad managed finances.
Life can also be more blissful and various life needs can be met well by managing money the way the Prophet did. Because living in this day and age, you can apply the practice of managing your finances using Jago Syariah.
What is It Like to Manage Finances in the Prophet's Way?
1. Separate needs
There are three simple categories used by the Prophet to divide his expenses, namely food, things worn such as clothes and sadaqah.
The words of Rasulullah SAW: "The servant said, 'My treasures.' Isn't there only three treasures: what he eats and it will disappear, what he wears and it will wear out, what he gives is actually the treasure he has collected. Wealth other than that will disappear and be given to the people he left behind." (HR. Muslim)
2. Prioritize saving in managing finances
Saving money is recommended in Islam. Saving is believed to be a form of practice that guarantees the achievement of goodness and avoids danger or loss. Apart from that, by saving we also ensure that we use our assets according to our needs.
Several hadiths and verses from the Quran recommend saving money. The words of Rasulullah SAW: "Allah will give mercy to his servant who seeks halal sustenance and gives charity deliberately, prioritizing more important needs, on the day when he is in a state of poverty and has needs." (HR. Muslim and Ahmad) - reference: Republika.
3. Don't spend money carelessly
Increasing your savings can help you reduce and avoid bad spending habits. Saving, in terms of managing finances, is an act of prioritizing more important needs, so that consumption is not excessive.
